Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Four minutes of documentary footage in the movie was censored by the courts which claimed that it would confuse viewers who may believe this film is non-fiction. The film-makers opted to leave four minutes of black screen where the scenes were cut. The film has since been shown in its original version at the Pusan International Film Festival. The Supreme Court overruled its previous case, so the filmmakers were able to add the deleted footage. more
Goofs:
Anachronisms: KCIA Director Kim at one point refers to the death of Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev, which occurred three years after the events depicted in the film. more

Great Satire on Political Government hierarchy!, 4 January 2007
10/10
Author: seven-iron from United States

great satire. this film isn't necessarily about the assassination of a south Korean president but about the workings of how status works in a political new-world environment circa 1979. Quentin would love this film, i bet. i don't even know for sure what he thinks, but i'm gonna just say it. very funny & a great satire about the simple workings of being human. classic comedy for sure.

character development is great & the film is shot very well. no there aren't amazing fight scenes or a lot of sexy Asian nakedness... but just plain old simple character and plot and story. director did a great job. more people should see this for sure....
